Le Centre de l'Université de Shangaï Jiao Tong University qui se charge d'établir une hiérarchie mondiale des universités selon des critères assez contestés par la communauté universitaire française a rendu public aux premières heures de la nuit son "Classement de Shangaï" 2011 (Academic Ranking of World Universities ARWU). On se souvient (voir article précédent) qu'une délégation était venue en France récemment visiter plusieurs universités en statut de PRES pré fusionnel dont Aix-Marseille qui deviendra université unique en janvier 2012. Les spécialistes du classement ont tenu compte de ce changement de taille, qui va se traduire par une signature commune Aix-Marseille Université quant aux travaux scientifiques publiés dans les revues de renom, un des paramètres du Ranking de Shangaï.
AMU et Strabourg, déjà université fusionnée, font donc un grand bond en avant, prenant place dans la catégorie non différenciée des universités mondiales classées entre 102 et 150. AMU s'installe dans le pelotion de tête des universités françaises (entre 4 et 6e). Les présidents des trois universités en passe de fusionner espèrent que ce sera un argument de poids pour obtenir le label IDEX dont le dossier doit être remis le 20 septembre. Les universités de Provence (U1) et de la Méditerranée (U2) étaient les seules classées auparavant et dans le wagon des 201-300.
Les universités américaines écrasent toujours ce classement mondial avec huit établissements parmi les dix premiers.

Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU): Starting from 2003, ARWU has been presenting the world top 500 universities annually based on a set of objective indicators and third-party data. ARWU has been recognized as the precursor of global university rankings and the most trustworthy list. ARWU uses six objective indicators to rank world universities, including the number of alumni and staff winning Nobel Prizes and Fields Medals, number of highly cited researchers selected by Thomson Scientific, number of articles published in journals of Nature and Science, number of articles indexed in Science Citation Index - Expanded and Social Sciences Citation Index, and per capita performance with respect to the size of an institution. More than 1000 universities are actually ranked by ARWU every year and the best 500 are published.
Center for World-Class Universities of Shanghai Jiao Tong University (CWCU): CWCU has been focusing on the study of world-class universities for many years, published the first Chinese-language book titled world-class universities and co-published the first English book titled world-class universities with European Centre for Higher Education of UNESCO. CWCU initiated the "International Conference on World-Class Universities" in 2005 and organizes the conference every second year, which attracts a large number of participants from all major countries. CWCU endeavors to build databases of major research universities in the world and clearinghouse of literature on world-class universities, and provide consultation for governments and universities.
